  4. Underwater cutting and welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underwater_cutting_and_welding

    Oxygen arc cutting and arc welding underwater requires greater skill and stamina than working in a dry and stable environment. The underwater environment imposes several limitations and restrictions on both the equipment and the operator, and the restriction of short bottom times at greater depths for surface-oriented divers makes efficient working important to getting the job done in a ...
